Museo Nazionale delle Residenze Napoleoniche - Palazzina dei Mulini

It was the visit. Leave your car outside the old city, driving in the old city is a nightmare. Especially around Villa dei Mulini streets are narrow, crowded with visitors and there are no parking places. In full season expect to have to queue in order to enter; the number of visitors inside the house is limited. In July 2019 we had to wait more than 30 minutes. The museum is modest but it gives a good impression of the living conditions of Napoleon in Elba. Do not expect the luxury of French royal palaces.

The house and garden are beautiful and in good condition, but the furniture inside isn't original there. Worth visiting if there's time but nothing touching.

Napoleon's residence on Elba island for 8 months in 1814-15. The museum itself is not very impressive. In fact there is furniture and some paintings also, but that much to see of a historical nature other than the fact the building is still there. The gardens outside at the back are nice and relaxing, and the view to see is quite impressive. You can see Piombino in the distance as well as the step leading to Fort Stella.

This museum combines the indoor and outdoor environment in a way that highlights the beauty of Elba with the opulence of Napoleon's \exile\ years. For only 5 Euro per person, this museum of rooms and gardens is an excellent value for your time in Portofierro.
